The rubber shock absorber in my tail wheel assembly needs to be replaced. It is very compressed so my tail wheel is too close to the rudder when taxying.

What is that shock absorber made of and where can I buy one?

Cheers!

I think that Eugenio Lanza di Casalanza has them in stock.

Thanks! I’ve sent him a pm.

Fredrik S had a look at the drawings for me and he found the correct part number. Paulstra 512503
